Rental <b>Car Rates</b>? - Aruba |
| Rental <b>Car Rates</b>? - Aruba Posted: 09 Mar 2014 10:43 AM PDT I have been checking the rental car rates for June and I am seeing higher prices than I am used to.... For example, last year we booked our Economy size Kia for around $200 for 10 days. I think we booked in January or February for an early June arrival. I just checked this morning for the same car, same start date for 9 days, and I am seeing $264/wk? Seems like prices are higher than last year... Seeing as how this is March, I am wondering if this is why the prices are higher...or maybe because I checked on the weekend? Does anyone have a rule of thumb on rental car rates? Does it work like airline fares where it rises and falls depending on the day, month, etc? Or is it just overall higher the closer you get to your dates? Thanks!  |
| Zestiest of 'Zillas: Nissan <b>Prices</b> GT-R NISMO at $151,585 – News <b>...</b> Posted: 03 Mar 2014 08:55 AM PST
In describing the Nissan GT-R, it is hard to avoid using superlatives, and the new GT-R NISMO is the mostest superlativest of all GT-Rs, ever. And now, the latest GT-R NISMO can claim to be far and away the most expensive Nissan ever sold in the U.S., at an eye-watering $151,585. That's a healthy $34,280 more than the next priciest GT-R model, the Track edition, which starts at $117,305. With 600 hp and 481 lb-ft of torque from its twin-turbocharged 3.8-liter V-6, the GT-R NISMO is the most powerful of the four different GT-R models Nissan is offering for 2015. At 7 minutes 8.679 seconds, its lap time around Germany's famous Nürburgring racetrack (see the video below) is not only the quickest of any GT-R ever tested there, it's the best time of any volume production car—period. In addition to boasting an additional 55 hp and 18 lb-ft of torque compared to "regular" GT-Rs, the NISMO gets retuned Bilstein shocks with three modes, stiffer springs, stickier tires, sturdier wheel hubs, and other chassis fortifications. Styling changes include a revised front bumper, underbody aero modifications, and a serious rear spoiler, all meant to generate an additional 220 pounds of downforce at 185 mph compared to the standard 2015 GT-R. Unique red outlining on the body and wider, six-spoke wheels serve to help keen GT-R fans quickly identify the NISMO model.
Want one? You're gonna have to wait until July 31, 2014, when the GT-R NISMO is scheduled to go on sale at select Nissan dealers in the U.S. Start saving now.
